The story compares the emu to lots of other Australian birds (galah, cockatoo, wedge-tail eagle, kookaburra) and of course to the kangaroo, providing wonderful opportunities for hilarious illustrations.

Download or read book Operation Emu written by B. Barker and published by Brandon Barker. This book was released on 2006-10 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1992 NASA planet watchers discovered alien life in a nearby galaxy. Immediately they conducted a secret experiment called Operation EMU. Francine Dean, aspiring B-movie actress, saw it as a way to avoid tax evasion charges, and maybe a career boost. Legendary schlock director Enoch Jeffries signed on to avoid felony charges from his guerilla-style film shoots. And astronauts Nimrod T. Ashby, Erasmus J.T. Clark and T.W. Tongue faced the opportunity of a lifetime. At Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland, the three astronauts underwent intense training, were sedated in a spacecraft and -- after eight months in space -- woke on an alien planet complete with cave people, woolly mammoths and a mind-boggling prehistoric society. Or, did they? Editorial Reviews Sharp, fierce, and funny, Operation EMU is a wicked satire about the space program, low-budget filmmaking, and why Americans love to be told what to believe. Brandon Barker's first novel doesn't stop surprising or delighting. Imagine NASA run by pro wrestling's Vince McMahon -- or better yet, start reading this book. -- Douglas E. Winter, author of Run (Knopf). I loved Operation EMU -- very, very funny and wicked at the same time, with nice digs at popular/unpopular culture. I think it could be, aside from the delightful novel it already is, a very amusing movie. -- Judy Bachrach, author of Tina and Harry Come to America: Tina Brown, Harry Evans, and the Uses of Power (Free Press). Operation EMU is original, fresh, smart, funny, touching, and compulsively readable. Brandon Barker's take on man's first contact with life on another planet -- one suspiciously like our own in the age of the cave men -- could be a collaborationbetween Calvin Trillin and Philip K. Dick; but in the end, this fascinating novel is all Barker, a major new talent with a unique voice and a shrewd and compassionate eye on the human condition. -- Steven Spruill, author of Before I Wake (St. Martin's Press), Painkiller (St. Martin's Press) and Sleeper (Berkley).

Download or read book The Illustrated Secrets of Enoch written by Enoch and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2014-12-27 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One might ask why there is so much interest in this obscure little apocryphal book written under the assumed name Enoch? If we look at the book of Luke where Jesus is describing for His disciples the time of His return in Luke 17:26 "Just as it was in the days of Noah, so will it be in the days of the Son of Man. They were eating and drinking and marrying and being given in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all." We may want to know in greater detail just exactly what it was like during the time of Noah. Reading the first chapter of the Book of Enoch we find "Enoch a righteous man, whose eyes were opened by God, saw the vision of the Holy One in the heavens, which the angels showed me, and from them I heard everything, and from them I understood as I saw, but not for this generation, but for a remote one which is for to come. Concerning the elect I said, and took up my parable concerning them: The Holy Great One will come forth from His dwelling, and the eternal God will tread upon the earth, even on Mount Sinai, and appear from His camp and appear in the strength of His might from the heaven of heavens." So not only does Luke and Mathew for that matter tell us that Jesus return will come at time like the time of Noah and the flood, but the Book of Enoch begins by telling us it is written not for those of Enoch's generation, but for a generation in the distant future when the Holy Great One will tread upon the earth and He will appear in the strength of His might from the Heaven of Heavens. From The reference in the Letter of Jude 1:15 quoting Enoch regarding the return of Jesus, to the passages in Mathew and Luke regarding the time of Christ's return to be like the time of Noah, and considering Enoch's claim to be written for the elect of the generation alive during the time of the Holy Great One's coming to Earth I believe the Book of Enoch deserves a serious read.
Download or read book Funny Farm written by Laurie Zaleski and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2022-02-22 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An inspiring and moving memoir of the author's turbulent life with 600 rescue animals. Laurie Zaleski never aspired to run an animal rescue; that was her mother Annie’s dream. But from girlhood, Laurie was determined to make the dream come true. Thirty years later as a successful businesswoman, she did it, buying a 15-acre farm deep in the Pinelands of South Jersey. She was planning to relocate Annie and her caravan of ragtag rescues—horses and goats, dogs and cats, chickens and pigs—when Annie died, just two weeks before moving day. In her heartbreak, Laurie resolved to make her mother's dream her own. In 2001, she established the Funny Farm Animal Rescue outside Mays Landing, New Jersey. Today, she carries on Annie’s mission to save abused and neglected animals. Funny Farm is Laurie’s story: of promises kept, dreams fulfilled, and animals lost and found. It’s the story of Annie McNulty, who fled a nightmarish marriage with few skills, no money and no resources, dragging three kids behind her, and accumulating hundreds of cast-off animals on the way. And lastly, it's the story of the brave, incredible, and adorable animals that were rescued. Although there are some sad parts (as life always is), there are lots of laughs.
